Listings are the bridge between your Flxpoint products and the items displayed on your sales channels (e.g., BigCommerce, Shopify). You can create listings, publish or update them, and manage their status—all from the Products section of your dashboard.
🔍What is a Listing?
A listing in Flxpoint represents a connection between a product and a channel-specific item.
Action | Purpose |
---|---|
Create Listing | Build the listing record and prepare it for syncing |
Publish Listing | Send the product details to the sales channel |
Link Listing | Match a listing with an existing item on the channel |
Sync Listing | Update inventory and pricing in real-time from Flxpoint |
Once created and published, listings can:
- Sync price and quantity
- Be linked to external items via UPC or SKU
- Be updated by overriding with product content from Flxpoint
